Houston Texans coach Lovie Smith not sure 'exactly why' Davis Mills, offense are struggling

CHICAGO – A golden chance for the Houston Texans to capture their first win rested on the shoulders of the offense.

The Texans lined up with 1:14 remaining in the fourth quarter from the Texans' 26. The stakes were high with the score knotted at 20-20 on third-and-1.

Second-year quarterback Davis Mills received the shotgun snap and quickly surveyed the field, went through his progressions and threw a check-down pass to running back Rex Burkhead.
